Day 22 – I got to go to the dentist

Today I got to go to the dentist. Just a regular cleaning appointment. But, did you notice that I said “got to?” That is something I learned from Mark Cahill in One Thing You Can’t Do in Heaven. If you have not read Mark’s book(s) I highly recommend it (them). Mark mentions in the book that as a Christian we no longer need to think like “I have to give” or “I have to go to church” but rather “I get to …”

With that in mind, when I go to the dentist, I also get to hand out some tracts there. So, going to the dentist becomes a good thing in terms of the chance to share the Gospel.

I think I have already given tracts to just about everyone that works there at the dentists office. My two favorite places to leave tracts there are

  1. On the table outside of the door to the office
  2. In the magazines in the waiting room

So I left at least 8-10 tracts at the dentists office today!
